It turns out that with some slight = modifications I could typeset the mentioned project with = mkiv. 
Then after having added the following from your = article:

%% For = PDF/A
\setupbackend[
format=3D{pdf/a-1a:2005},
profile=3D{default_cmyk.icc,
        =  default_rgb.icc,default_gray.icc},
intent=3D{%

]
%% = Tagged PDF
%% method=3Dauto =3D=3D> default tags by = Adobe
\setupstructure[state=3Dstart,method=3Dauto]
I could get a PDF which looks fine: but now I have to make = sure that it is PDF/A compliant.
Right now I don=92t hav etime = to check this, but in any case you gave me good hope=85 = Thanks!

Best regards: = OK

Thanks Luigi for the hint to that = paper.
Unfortuantely the project has been done with mkii=85 that=92s = why I would like to know if it=92s possible to produce a PDF/A compliant = file with ConTeXt mkii.
By the way, is there an easy way to check whether a PDF file is = PDF/A compliant?

Best regards: = OK
afaik there is only and experimental = extension of pdftex that used with latex can make pdf/a-1a (tagged pdf) = -- but i'm not sure. 

But = pdf/a-1b are different (not tagged) so you can use ghostscript, even if = it's not easy.
Here an article by C: = Beccari for xelatex
